Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 268:131697. [PMID: 38688333 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131697] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2024] [Revised: 04/11/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024]
Abstract
Immobilization technology plays an important role in enhancing enzyme stability and environmental adaptability. Despite its rapid development, this technology still encounters many challenges such as enzyme leakage, difficulties in large-scale implementation, and limited reusability. Drawing inspiration from natural paired molecules, this study aimed to establish a method for immobilized α-glucosidase using artificial antibody-antigen interaction. The proposed method consists of three main parts: synthesis of artificial antibodies, synthesis of artificial antigens, and assembly of the artificial antibody-antigen complex. The critical step in this method involves selecting a pair of structurally similar compounds: catechol as a template for preparing artificial antibodies and protocatechualdehyde for modifying the enzyme to create the artificial antigens. By utilizing the same functional groups in these compounds, specific recognition of the antigen by the artificial antibody can be achieved, thereby immobilizing the enzymes. The results demonstrated that the immobilization amount, specific activity, and enzyme activity of the immobilized α-glucosidase were 25.09 ± 0.10 mg/g, 5.71 ± 0.17 U/mgprotein and 143.25 ± 1.71 U/gcarrier, respectively. The immobilized α-glucosidase not only exhibited excellent reusability but also demonstrated remarkable performance in catalyzing the hydrolysis of 4-methylumbelliferyl-α-D-glucopyranoside.

Abstract
Glucose oxidase (GOD) is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry, fermentation products and glucose biosensors for its essential role in catalyzing the conversion of glucose to gluconic acid and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). As H2O2 is the by-product and will have a toxic effect on glucose oxidase, so introducing another enzyme that could consume H2O2 to form an enzymatic cascade reaction is a practical solution. However, this decision will lead to extra expenses and complex condition optimization such as the specific mass ratio, temperature and pH to improve the activity, stability and recyclability. Herein, we describe a mild and versatile strategy by anchoring GOD on carboxyl-activated MOF (Cu-TCPP(Fe)) through DNA-directed immobilization (DDI) technology. Robust MOF nanosheets were utilized as not only the carrier for the immobilization of GOD, but also a peroxidase-like catalyst for the decomposition of H2O2 to reduce its harmful impacts. In this work, the immobilized GOD retained 55.78% of its initial activity after being used for 7 times. More than 60% of the immobilized enzyme's catalytic activity was still maintained after 96 h of being stored at 50 ℃. This study provides a new idea for preparing immobilized enzymes with enhanced stability, fast diffusion and high activity, which can be used in fields such as biocatalysis and biotechnology.

Abstract
Liquid biopsy approaches are powerful strategies that potentially allow the diagnosis and prognosis of a number of diseases. The field is continuously and rapidly growing, encouraging the discovery of novel predictory biomarkers. Antibodies are usually exploited in sensors to validate biomarker candidates. Unfortunately, the immobilization of antibodies on the surface of sensors represents a challenging task. Immobilization strategies need to be optimized for each antibody, representing a huge obstacle to overcome in the discovery of new biomarkers. Herein we propose a novel strategy for the immobilization of antibodies, based on the use of a streptavidin-binding aptamer. Using this approach it is possible to immobilize antibodies on the surface of sensors with no need for optimization, with the only requirement for antibody to be biotinylated. The proposed strategy potentially paves the way towards a straightforward immobilization of antibodies on biosensors, making their use in biomarker validation more accessible.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) microscaffolds for cell biology have shown their potential in mimicking physiological environments and simulating complex multicellular constructs. However, controlling the localization of cells precisely on microfabricated structures is still complex and usually limited to two-dimensional assays. Indeed, the implementation of an efficient method to selectively target different cell types to specific regions of a 3D microscaffold would represent a decisive step toward cell-by-cell assembly of complex cellular arrangements. Here, we use two-photon lithography (2PL) to fabricate 3D microarchitectures with functional photoresists. UV-mediated click reactions are used to functionalize their surfaces with single-stranded DNA oligonucleotides, using sequential repetition to decorate different scaffold regions with individual DNA addresses. Various immortalized cell lines and stem cells modified by grafting complementary oligonucleotides onto the phospholipid membranes can then be immobilized onto complementary regions of the 3D structures by selective hybridization. This allows controlled cocultures to be established with spatially separated arrays of eukaryotic cells in 3D.

Abstract
Colocalization of cascade enzymes is broadly discussed as a phenomenon that can boost the cascade reaction throughput, although a direct experimental verification is often challenging. This is mainly due to difficulties in establishing proper size regimes and in the analytical quantification of colocalization effect with adequate experimental systems and simulations. In this study, by taking advantage of reversible DNA-directed colocalization of enzymes on microspheres, we established a cascade system that can be used to directly evaluate the colocalization effect with exactly the same experimental settings except for the state of enzyme dispersion. In the regime of highly dilute microspheres of particular sizes, the colocalized cascade shows enhanced activity compared with the freely diffusing cascade, as evidenced by a shortened lag phase in the time-course production. Reaction-diffusion modeling reveals that the enhancement can be ascribed to the initial accumulation of intermediate substrate around the colocalized enzymes and is found to be carrier-size-dependent. This work demonstrates the dependence of the colocalization effect of enzyme cascades on an interplay of nano- and microscales, lending theoretical support to the rational design of highly efficient multienzyme catalysts.

Abstract
Nucleated protein self-assembly of an azido modified spider silk protein was employed in the preparation of nanofibrillar networks with hydrogel-like properties immobilized on coatings of the same protein. Formation of the networks in a mild aqueous environment resulted in thicknesses between 2 and 60 nm, which were controlled only by the protein concentration. Incorporated azido groups in the protein were used to "click" short nucleic acid sequences onto the nanofibrils, which were accessible to specific hybridization-based modifications, as proved by fluorescently labeled DNA complements. A lipid modifier was used for efficient incorporation of DNA into the membrane of nonadherent Jurkat cells. Based on the complementarity of the nucleic acids, highly specific DNA-assisted immobilization of the cells on the nanohydrogels with tunable cell densities was possible. Addressability of the DNA cell-to-surface anchor was demonstrated with a competitive oligonucleotide probe, resulting in a rapid release of 75-95% of cells. In addition, we developed a photolithography-based patterning of arbitrarily shaped microwells, which served to spatially define the formation of the nanohydrogels. After detaching the photoresist and PEG-blocking of the surface, DNA-assisted immobilization of the Jurkat cells on the nanohydrogel microstructures was achieved with high fidelity.

Abstract
Three-dimensional printing at the micro-/nanoscale represents a new challenge in research and development to achieve direct printing down to nanometre-sized objects. Here, FluidFM, a combination of microfluidics with atomic force microscopy, offers attractive options to fabricate hierarchical polymer structures at different scales. However, little is known about the effect of the substrate on the printed structures and the integration of (bio)functional groups into the polymer inks. In this study, we printed micro-/nanostructures on surfaces with different wetting properties, and integrated molecules with different functional groups (rhodamine as a fluorescent label and biotin as a binding tag for proteins) into the base polymer ink. The substrate wetting properties strongly affected the printing results, in that the lateral feature sizes increased with increasing substrate hydrophilicity. Overall, ink modification only caused minor changes in the stiffness of the printed structures. This shows the generality of the approach, as significant changes in the mechanical properties on chemical functionalization could be confounders in bioapplications. The retained functionality of the obtained structures after UV curing was demonstrated by selective binding of streptavidin to the printed structures. The ability to incorporate binding tags to achieve specific interactions between relevant proteins and the fabricated micro-/nanostructures, without compromising the mechanical properties, paves a way for numerous bio and sensing applications. Additional flexibility is obtained by tuning the substrate properties for feature size control, and the option to obtain functionalized printed structures without post-processing procedures will contribute to the development of 3D printing for biological applications, using FluidFM and similar dispensing techniques.

Abstract
Colloidal crystal engineering with DNA has led to significant advances in bottom-up materials synthesis and a new way of thinking about fundamental concepts in chemistry. Here, programmable atom equivalents (PAEs), comprised of nanoparticles (the "atoms") functionalized with DNA (the "bonding elements"), are assembled through DNA hybridization into crystalline lattices. Unlike atomic systems, the "atom" (e.g., the nanoparticle shape, size, and composition) and the "bond" (e.g., the DNA length and sequence) can be tuned independently, yielding designer materials with unique catalytic, optical, and biological properties. In this review, nearly three decades of work that have contributed to the evolution of this class of programmable matter is chronicled, starting from the earliest examples based on gold-core PAEs, and then delineating how advances in synthetic capabilities, DNA design, and fundamental understanding of PAE-PAE interactions have led to new classes of functional materials that, in several cases, have no natural equivalent.

Abstract
The development of a DNA-based cell-responsive biohybrid interface that can be used for spatially confined release of molecular cargo is reported. To this end, tailored DNA-protein conjugates are designed as gatekeepers that can be specifically cleaved by matrix metalloproteases (MMPs), which are secreted by many cancer cells. These gatekeepers can be installed by DNA hybridization on the surface of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs). The MSNs display another orthogonal DNA oligonucleotide that can be exploited for site-selective immobilization on solid glass surfaces to yield micropatterned substrates for cell adhesion. Using the human fibrosarcoma cell line HT1080 that secretes MMPs, it is demonstrated that the biohybrid surface is specifically modified by the cells to release both MSN-bound gatekeeper proteins and the encapsulated cargo peptide KLA. In view of the enormously high modularity of the system presented here, this approach promising for applications in drug delivery, tissue engineering, or other areas of nanobiotechnology is considered.

Abstract
The rapid progress in the development of surface plasmon resonance-based immunosensing platforms offers wide application possibilities in medical diagnostics as a label-free alternative to enzyme immunoassays. The early diagnosis of diseases or metabolic changes through the detection of biomarkers in body fluids requires methods characterized by a very good sensitivity and selectivity. In the case of the SPR technique, as well as other surface-sensitive detection strategies, the quality of the transducer-immunoreceptor interphase is crucial for maintaining the analytical reliability of an assay. In this work, an overview of general approaches to the design of functional SPR-immunoassays is presented. It covers both immunosensors, the design of which utilizes well-known and often commercially available substrates, as well as the latest solutions developed in-house. Various approaches employing chemical and passive binding, affinity-based antibody immobilization, and the introduction of nanomaterial-based surfaces are discussed. The essence of their influence on the improvement of the main analytical parameters of a given immunosensor is explained. Particular attention is paid to solutions compatible with the latest trends in the development of label-free immunosensors, such as platforms dedicated to real-time monitoring in a quasi-continuous mode, the use of in situ-generated receptor layers (elimination of the regeneration step), and biosensors using recombinant and labelled protein receptors.

Chiodi E, Marn AM, Geib MT, Ünlü MS. The Role of Surface Chemistry in the Efficacy of Protein and DNA Microarrays for Label-Free Detection: An Overview. Polymers (Basel) 2021; 13:1026. [PMID: 33810267 PMCID: PMC8036480 DOI: 10.3390/polym13071026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2021] [Revised: 03/23/2021] [Accepted: 03/23/2021] [Indexed: 01/04/2023] Open
Abstract
The importance of microarrays in diagnostics and medicine has drastically increased in the last few years. Nevertheless, the efficiency of a microarray-based assay intrinsically depends on the density and functionality of the biorecognition elements immobilized onto each sensor spot. Recently, researchers have put effort into developing new functionalization strategies and technologies which provide efficient immobilization and stability of any sort of molecule. Here, we present an overview of the most widely used methods of surface functionalization of microarray substrates, as well as the most recent advances in the field, and compare their performance in terms of optimal immobilization of the bioreceptor molecules. We focus on label-free microarrays and, in particular, we aim to describe the impact of surface chemistry on two types of microarray-based sensors: microarrays for single particle imaging and for label-free measurements of binding kinetics. Both protein and DNA microarrays are taken into consideration, and the effect of different polymeric coatings on the molecules' functionalities is critically analyzed.

Abstract
With the demand for green, safe, and continuous biocatalysis, bioscaffolds, compared with synthetic scaffolds, have become a desirable candidate for constructing enzyme assemblages because of their biocompatibility and regenerability. Biocompatibility makes bioscaffolds more suitable for safe and green production, especially in food processing, production of bioactive agents, and diagnosis. The regenerability can enable the engineered biocatalysts regenerate through simple self-proliferation without complex re-modification, which is attractive for continuous biocatalytic processes. In view of the unique biocompatibility and regenerability of bioscaffolds, they can be classified into non-living (polysaccharide, nucleic acid, and protein) and living (virus, bacteria, fungi, spore, and biofilm) bioscaffolds, which can fully satisfy these two unique properties, respectively. Enzymes assembled onto non-living bioscaffolds are based on single or complex components, while enzymes assembled onto living bioscaffolds are based on living bodies. In terms of their unique biocompatibility and regenerability, this review mainly covers the current advances in the research and application of non-living and living bioscaffolds with focus on engineering strategies for enzyme assembly. Finally, the future development of bioscaffolds for enzyme assembly is also discussed. Hopefully, this review will attract the interest of researchers in various fields and empower the development of biocatalysis, biomedicine, environmental remediation, therapy, and diagnosis.

Abstract
Membrane proteins on the cell surface perform a myriad of biological functions; however, ligand discovery for membrane proteins is highly challenging, because a natural cellular environment is often necessary to maintain protein structure and function. DNA-encoded chemical libraries (DELs) have emerged as a powerful technology for ligand discovery, but they are mainly limited to purified proteins. Here we report a method that can specifically label membrane proteins with a DNA tag, and thereby enable target-specific DEL selections against endogenous membrane proteins on live cells without overexpression or any other genetic manipulation. We demonstrate the generality and performance of this method by screening a 30.42-million-compound DEL against the folate receptor, carbonic anhydrase 12 and the epidermal growth factor receptor on live cells, and identify and validate a series of novel ligands for these targets. Given the high therapeutic significance of membrane proteins and their intractability to traditional high-throughput screening approaches, this method has the potential to facilitate membrane-protein-based drug discovery by harnessing the power of DEL.

Abstract
A key activity in small-molecule drug discovery is the characterization of compound-target interactions. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is a flexible technique for this purpose, with a wide affinity range (micromoles to picomoles), low protein requirements, and the ability to characterize the kinetics of compound binding. However, a key requirement of SPR is the immobilization of the target protein to the surface of the sensor chip. The most commonly used immobilization techniques (covalent immobilization, streptavidin-biotin) are irreversible in nature, which can afford excellent baseline stability but impose limitations throughput for slowly dissociating compounds or unstable targets. Reversible immobilization (e.g., His-tag-Ni-NTA) is possible but typically precludes accurate quantification of slow dissociation kinetics due to baseline drift.Here we present our investigation of three immobilization strategies (dual-His-tagged target protein, His-tagged streptavidin, and switchavidin) that combine the robustness of irreversible immobilization with the flexibility of reversible immobilization. Each has its own advantages and limitations, and while a universal immobilization procedure remains to be found, these strategies add to the immobilization toolbox that enables previously out-of-scope applications. Such applications are highlighted in two examples that greatly increased throughput for the kinetic characterization of potent kinase inhibitors and kinetic profiling of covalent inhibitors.

Abstract
Micro- and nanopatterning of proteins on surfaces allows to develop for example high-throughput biosensors in biomedical diagnostics and in general advances the understanding of cell-material interactions in tissue engineering. Today, many techniques are available to generate protein pattern, ranging from technically simple ones, such as micro-contact printing, to highly tunable optical lithography or even technically sophisticated scanning probe lithography. Here, one focus is on the progress made in the development of protein-based materials as positive or negative photoresists allowing micro- to nanostructured scaffolds for biocompatible photonic, electronic and tissue engineering applications. The second one is on approaches, which allow a controlled spatiotemporal positioning of a single protein on surfaces, enabled by the recent developments in immobilization techniques coherent with the sensitive nature of proteins, defined protein orientation and maintenance of the protein activity at interfaces. The third one is on progress in photolithography-based methods, which allow to control the formation of protein-repellant/adhesive polymer brushes.

Abstract
DNA nanotechnology is an emerging field that promises fascinating opportunities for the manipulation and imaging of proteins on a cell surface. The key to progress is the ability to create a nucleic acid-protein junction in the context of living cells. Here we report a covalent labelling reaction that installs a biostable peptide nucleic acid (PNA) tag. The reaction proceeds within minutes and is specific for proteins carrying a 2 kDa coiled-coil peptide tag. Once installed, the PNA label serves as a generic landing platform that enables the recruitment of fluorescent dyes via nucleic acid hybridization. We demonstrate the versatility of this approach by recruiting different fluorophores, assembling multiple fluorophores for increased brightness and achieving reversible labelling by way of toehold-mediated strand displacement. Additionally, we show that labelling can be carried out using two different coiled-coil systems, with epidermal growth factor receptor and endothelin receptor type B, on both HEK293 and CHO cells. Finally, we apply the method to monitor internalization of epidermal growth factor receptor on CHO cells.

Abstract
Multiplex immunoassays are important tools in basic research and diagnostics. The ability to accurately quantify the presence of several antigens within an individual sample all at once has been useful in developing a proteomics view of biology. This in turn has enabled the development of disease-associated immunodiagnostic panels for better prognosis and well-being. Moreover, it is well understood that such multiplexing approaches lend themselves to automation, thereby reducing labor while providing the ability to dramatically conserve both reagent and sample all of which will reduce the cost per test. Here we describe various methods to create and use multiplex immunoassays in the wells of microtiter plates or similar formats.

Abstract
We report on the directed postsynthetic functionalization of soft DNA nanocomposite materials with proteins. Using the example of the functionalization of silica nanoparticle-modified DNA polymer materials with agonists or antagonists of the epidermal growth factor receptor EGFR cell membrane receptor, we demonstrate that hierarchically structured interfaces to living cells can be established. Owing to the modular design principle, even complex DNA nanostructures can be integrated into the materials, thereby enabling the high-precision arrangement of ligands on the lower nanometer length scale. We believe that such complex biohybrid material systems can be used for new applications in biotechnology.

Abstract
In the 90s, the development of a novel single molecule technique based on nanopore sensing emerged. Preliminary improvements were based on the molecular or biological engineering of protein nanopores along with the use of nanotechnologies developed in the context of microelectronics. Since the last decade, the convergence between those two worlds has allowed for biomimetic approaches. In this respect, the combination of nanopores with aptamers, single-stranded oligonucleotides specifically selected towards molecular or cellular targets from an in vitro method, gained a lot of interest with potential applications for the single molecule detection and recognition in various domains like health, environment or security. The recent developments performed by combining nanopores and aptamers are highlighted in this review and some perspectives are drawn.

Abstract
The continuous progress of printing technologies over the past 20 years has fueled the development of a plethora of applications in materials sciences, flexible electronics, and biotechnologies. More recently, printing methodologies have started up to explore the world of Artificial Biology, offering new paradigms in the direct assembly of Artificial Biosystems (small condensates, compartments, networks, tissues, and organs) by mimicking the result of the evolution of living systems and also by redesigning natural biological systems, taking inspiration from them. This recent progress is reported in terms of a new field here defined as Printing Biology, resulting from the intersection between the field of printing and the bottom up Synthetic Biology. Printing Biology explores new approaches for the reconfigurable assembly of designed life-like or life-inspired structures. This work presents this emerging field, highlighting its main features, i.e., printing methodologies (from 2D to 3D), molecular ink properties, deposition mechanisms, and finally the applications and future challenges. Printing Biology is expected to show a growing impact on the development of biotechnology and life-inspired fabrication.

Abstract
This work presents the first reported imbibition mechanism of femtoliter (fL)-scale droplets produced by microchannel cantilever spotting (μCS) of DNA molecular inks into porous substrates (hydrophilic nylon). Differently from macroscopic or picoliter droplets, the downscaling to the fL-size leads to an imbibition process controlled by the subtle interplay of evaporation, spreading, viscosity, and capillarity, with gravitational forces being quasi-negligible. In particular, the minimization of droplet evaporation, surface tension, and viscosity allows for a reproducible droplet imbibition process. The dwell time on the nylon surface permits further tuning of the droplet lateral size, in accord with liquid ink diffusion mechanisms. The functionality of the printed DNA molecules is demonstrated at different imbibed oligonucleotide concentrations by hybridization with a fluorolabeled complementary sequence, resulting in a homogeneous coverage of DNA within the imbibed droplet. This study represents a first step toward the μCS-enabled fabrication of DNA-based biosensors and microarrays into porous substrates.

Abstract
DNA is an attractive molecular building block to construct nanoscale structures for a variety of applications. In addition to their structure and function, modification the DNA nanostructures by other molecules opens almost unlimited possibilities for producing functional DNA-based architectures. Among the molecules to functionalize DNA nanostructures, proteins are one of the most attractive candidates due to their vast functional variations. DNA nanostructures loaded with various types of proteins hold promise for applications in the life and material sciences. When loading proteins of interest on DNA nanostructures, the nanostructures by themselves act as scaffolds to specifically control the location and number of protein molecules. The methods to arrange proteins of interest on DNA scaffolds at high yields while retaining their activity are still the most demanding task in constructing usable protein-modified DNA nanostructures. Here, we provide an overview of the existing methods applied for assembling proteins of interest on DNA scaffolds. The assembling methods were categorized into two main classes, noncovalent and covalent conjugation, with both showing pros and cons. The recent advance of DNA-binding adaptor mediated assembly of proteins on the DNA scaffolds is highlighted and discussed in connection with the future perspectives of protein assembled DNA nanoarchitectures.

Abstract
Microarrays are powerful tools in biomedical research and have become indispensable for high-throughput multiplex analysis, especially for DNA and protein analysis. The basis for all microarray processing and fabrication is surface modification of a chip substrate and many different strategies to couple probe molecules to such substrates have been developed. We present here a critical assessment of typical biochip generation processes from a surface science point of view. While great progress has been made from a molecular biology point of view on the development of qualitative assays and impressive results have been obtained on the detection of rather low concentrations of DNA or proteins, quantitative chip-based assays are still comparably rare. We argue that lack of stable and reliable deposition chemistries has led in many cases to suboptimal quantitative reproducibility, impeded further progress in microarray development and prevented a more significant penetration of microarray technology into the diagnostic market. We suggest that surface-attached hydrogel networks might be a promising strategy to achieve highly sensitive and quantitatively reproducible microarrays.

Abstract
We demonstrate here a facile hydrothermal-assisted formation of PtCo alloy nanoparticles (NPs) and their simultaneous anchoring on the graphitic surface of N-doped graphene oxide (NGO). Doping induced nanopores in the carbon surface to facilitate the uniform and homogeneous anchoring of alloy nanoparticles. It was revealed that the formation of PtCo NPs on an NGO interface plodded excellent tendency toward double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (dsDNA). The dsDNA immobilization was enabled by the presence of several oxidation states of Pt and Co. The same property was further used to monitor the direct detection of dsDNA damage induced by clenbuterol via screen-printed carbon electrodes. Cyclic voltammetric and electrochemical impedance spectroscopic characterization traced well the dsDNA attachment on the modified electrode surface. Differential pulsed voltammetry was further used as a tool to monitor the characteristic guanine peak before and after incubating with clenbuterol used as a damage probe for the dsDNA. The findings can further be appurtenant in exploring dsDNA immobilization protocols and developing analytical methods for determination of various dsDNA damaging agents.

Abstract
In the past 35 years, DNA nanotechnology has grown to a highly innovative and vibrant field of research at the interface of chemistry, materials science, biotechnology, and nanotechnology. Herein, a short summary of the state of research in various subdisciplines of DNA nanotechnology, ranging from pure "structural DNA nanotechnology" over protein-DNA assemblies, nanoparticle-based DNA materials, and DNA polymers to DNA surface technology is given. The survey shows that these subdisciplines are growing ever closer together and suggests that this integration is essential in order to initiate the next phase of development. With the increasing implementation of machine-based approaches in microfluidics, robotics, and data-driven science, DNA-material systems will emerge that could be suitable for applications in sensor technology, photonics, as interfaces between technical systems and living organisms, or for biomimetic fabrication processes.

Abstract
The development of methods for colloidal self-assembly on solid surfaces is important for many applications in biomedical sciences. Toward this goal, described is a versatile class of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) that contain on their surface various types of DNA molecules to enable their self-assembly into micropatterned surface architectures useful for cell studies. Monodisperse dye-doped MSN are synthesized by biphase stratification and functionalized with an aptamer oligonucleotide that serves as gatekeeper for the triggered release of encapsulated molecular cargo, such as fluorescent dye rhodamine B or the anticancer drug doxorubicin. One or two additional types of oligonucleotides are installed on the MSN surface to enable DNA-directed immobilization on solid substrates bearing patterns of complementary capture oligonucleotides. It is demonstrated that this strategy can be used for efficient self-assembly of microstructured surface architectures, which not only promote the adhesion and guidance of cells but also are capable of affecting the fate of adhered cells through triggered release of their cargo. It is believed that this approach is useful for diverse applications in tissue engineering and nanobio sciences.

Abstract
DNA nanotechnology research has long-held promise as a means of developing functional molecules capable of delivery to cells. Recent advances in DNA origami have begun to realize this potential but is still at the earliest stage and a number of hurdles remain. This review focuses on progress in addressing these hurdles and considers some of the challenges still outstanding. These include stability of such structures necessary to reach target cells after administration; methods of cell targeting and uptake; strategies to avoid or escape endosomes and techniques for achieving specific subcellular localization. Finally, the functionality that can be expected once DNA origami structures reach their final intracellular targets will be considered.

Abstract
The terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) belongs to the X family of DNA polymerases. This unusual polymerase catalyzes the template-independent addition of random nucleotides on 3'-overhangs during V(D)J recombination. The biological function and intrinsic biochemical properties of the TdT have spurred the development of numerous oligonucleotide-based tools and methods, especially if combined with modified nucleoside triphosphates. Herein, we summarize the different applications stemming from the incorporation of modified nucleotides by the TdT. The structural, mechanistic, and biochemical properties of this polymerase are also discussed.

Abstract
The controlled immobilization of biomolecules onto surfaces is relevant in biosensing and cell biological research. Spatial control is achieved by surface-tethering molecules in micro- or nanoscale patterns. Yet, there is an increasing demand for temporal control over how long biomolecular cargo stays immobilized until released into the medium. Here, we present a DNA hybridization-based approach to reversibly anchor biomolecular cargo onto micropatterned surfaces. Cargo is linked to a DNA oligonucleotide that hybridizes to a sequence-complementary, surface-tethered strand. The cargo is released from the substrate by the addition of an oligonucleotide that disrupts the duplex interaction via toehold-mediated strand displacement. The unbound tether strand can be reloaded. The generic strategy is implemented with small-molecule or protein cargo, varying DNA sequences, and multiple surface patterning routes. The approach may be used as a tool in biological research to switch membrane proteins from a locally fixed to a free state, or in biosensing to shed biomolecular receptors to regenerate the sensor surface.

Abstract
The development of fast and cheap high-throughput platforms for the detection of environmental contaminants is of particular importance to understand the human-related impact on the environment. The application of DNA-directed immobilization (DDI) of IgG molecules is currently limited to the clinical diagnostics scenario, possibly because of the high costs of production of such addressable platforms. We here describe the efficient and specific hybridization of an antibody-oligonucleotide conjugate to a short 12-mer capture probe. The specific antibody used is a monoclonal antibody against caffeine, a stimulant and important anthropogenic marker. With this work, we hope to contribute to broadening the application potential of DDI to environmental markers in order to develop cheaper and more stable high-throughput screening platforms for standard routine analysis of pollutants in a variety of complex matrices.

Abstract
Surface capture assays can measure fluorescently labeled analytes across a 1000-fold concentration range and at the sub-nanomolar level, but many biological molecules exhibit 1,000,000-fold variations in abundance down to the femtomolar level. The goal of this work is to expand the dynamic range of fluorescence assays by using imaging to combine molecular counting with single-molecule calibration of ensemble intensities. We evaluate optical limits imposed by surface-captured fluorescent labels, compare performances of different fluorophore classes, and use detector acquisition parameters to span wide ranges of fluorescence irradiance. We find that the fluorescent protein phycoerythrin provides uniquely suitable properties with exceptionally intense and homogeneous single-fluorophore brightness that can overcome arbitrary spot detection threshold biases. Major limitations imposed by nonspecifically bound fluorophores were then overcome using rolling circle amplification to densely label cancer-associated miRNA biomarkers, allowing accurate single-molecule detection and calibration across nearly 5 orders of magnitude of concentration with a detection limit of 29 fM. These imaging and molecular counting strategies can be widely applied to expand the limit of detection and dynamic range of a variety of surface fluorescence assays.

Abstract
There is an urgent demand to construct multiplexed biomolecular patterns to obtain more biological information from a single experiment. However, with only limited reports focusing on defective top-down approaches, challenges remain to develop a bottom-up strategy for multiplexed patterning. To this end, a novel strategy has been proposed to fabricate multiplexed DNA patterns via macroscopic assembly through combined precise magnetic manipulation and DNA hybridization-driven self-assembly. Therefore, a multiplexed DNA pattern composed of glass fibers loaded with multiple specific strands of DNA was constructed, and its potential application in simultaneous detection of multiplex target DNA was demonstrated. Moreover, the fabricated multiplexed DNA pattern shows an erasable behavior because the hybridized DNA can be disassembled by strand displacement.

Abstract
DNA-protein conjugates are promising biomolecules for use in areas ranging from therapeutics to analysis because of the dual functionalities of DNA and protein. Conjugation requires site-specific and efficient covalent bond formation without impairing the activity of both biomolecules. Herein, we have focused on the use of a microbial transglutaminase (MTG) that catalyzes the cross-linking reaction between a glutamine residue and a primary amine. In a model bioconjugation, a highly MTG-reactive Gln (Q)-donor peptide (FYPLQMRG, FQ) was fused to enhanced green fluorescent protein (FQ-EGFP) and a primary amine-clustered DNA aptamer was enzymatically synthesized as a novel acyl-acceptor substrate of MTG, whose combination leads to efficient and convenient preparation of DNA-protein conjugates with high purity. Dual functionality of the obtained DNA-EGFP conjugate was evaluated by discrimination of cancer cells via c-Met receptor recognition ability of the DNA aptamer. The DNA aptamer-EGFP conjugate only showed fluorescence toward cells with c-Met overexpression, indicating the retention of the biochemical properties of the DNA and EGFP in the conjugated form.

Fabrication of a protein microarray by fluorous-fluorous interactions. Sci Rep 2017; 7:7053.

Abstract
Fluorous-modified surfaces have emerged as a powerful tool for the immobilization of fluorous-tagged biomolecules based on their specificity and the strength of fluorous-fluorous interactions. To fabricate a fluorous-based protein microarray, we designed two strategies for site-specific modification of proteins with a fluorous tag: attaching the fluorous tag to the C-termini of expressed proteins by native chemical ligation (NCL) or to the Fc domain of antibodies through boronic acid (BA)-diol interactions. The perfluoro-tagged proteins could be easily purified by fluorous-functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and immobilized on a fluorous chip with minimal non-specific adsorption. Importantly, proteins immobilized on the solid support through non-covalent fluorous-fluorous interactions were sufficiently stable to withstand continuous washing. We believe that this fluorous-fluorous immobilization strategy will be a highly valuable tool in protein microarray fabrication.
